Rostelecom agrees. "We do not see the relevance of legislative changes in terms of fixed-line number portability," said a representative of the press service of PJSC Rostelecom. ER-Telecom Holding declined to comment, and PJSC MGTS (Moscow City Telephone Network) did not respond to questions.

to freely dispose of city costa rica cell phone number list telephone numbers. This requires legislative changes. We are ready to initiate and support them," commented SIPUNI CEO Artemy Moroko.

In 2012, amendments were made to the Federal Law "On Communications", thanks to which the portability of numbers between mobile operators became possible, but the issue of unlinking fixed numbers remained unresolved.

"As a result, due to legislative restrictions, subscribers, private and corporate, today cannot freely choose a fixed-line operator while keeping their number, which leads to price dictates, encourages monopoly and increases subscribers' costs," the letters say. "Fixed-line numbers can be ported to the US and EU, Brazil and Moldova. World experience proves that this is a process that is beneficial for all parties - the communications regulator, operators and subscribers."

The General Director of the Association of Telephone Operators, Sergei Efimov, believes that the principles need to be revised, since the Ministry has not created a legal basis for combining IP telephony and fixed telephony together. "Transfer using data network technology under the current rules with the distinction between local, intra-zone, and long-distance communications can only be carried out within one municipality. Although the rules have been combined for mobile and fixed-line telephony, these are very different services. The value of fixed-line communications is that they are outside the Internet. Outside of data network technology, mainly. This means that they are significantly more resistant to external influences. Their value is precisely in their high survivability. Everything else, except for abstract "freedom," is just a nice idea with no practical result. There are currently 250 million mobile numbers with the ability to migrate and no more than 15 million fixed-line numbers without portability. Why break lances? Rather, we need a good dialogue between specialists in the fundamental reconfiguration of communication networks and telephone networks, but times are hectic. We can only dream for now. We need a concept, then a general plan - a network diagram. With the expectation that communications should be redundant and stable. Without this, nothing will take off. But the legislation needs to be amended today, perhaps taking into account such possibilities, but Internet telephony definitely cannot be sent. They haven't managed to cope with number substitution yet," he commented.
